Answer 1

Question:

a shop keeper allows a discount of 15% on the written price. how much above the cost price must he mark his goods to make a profit of 15%.

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price : Marked price

(100 - discount) : ( 100 + profit)

100 - 15 : 100 + 19

85 : 119

Now, 119 - 85 = 34

Raised %,

$= \frac{34}{85} \times 100 = 40\%$ ans.
